Having issues with humanoid rotation in a viewport frame

[bandanchik (PlagueDoctor)]

Hello, I have a problem with the positioning of the R15 dummy in the viewport frame.

It is designed to replicate the humanoid description (e.g. accessories and appearance). I figured out that in order to attach accessories to the dummy, you have to first parent it to the workspace, apply the description and parent it back to the viewport frame. But the problem is that it always rotates in a weird way.

I have tried everything, but nothing has worked. I would be glad if you could help me find the problem. Here is my code with my attempts to fix it:

local function ApplyNewDesc(username, template:Model)
	local UserId = game.Players:FindFirstChild(username).UserId
	local HumanoidDescription 

	local success,err = pcall(function()
		HumanoidDescription = game.Players:GetHumanoidDescriptionFromUserId(UserId)
	end)

	if success then
		local PrevLocation = template.Parent
		template.Parent = workspace
		template.PrimaryPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(Vector3.new(0, 0, 0))
		print(template:GetPivot())
		template.Humanoid:ApplyDescription(HumanoidDescription)
		task.wait(0.1)
		template.Parent = PrevLocation
		template.PrimaryPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(Vector3.new(0, 0, 0))
	else 
		task.wait()
		ApplyNewDesc(username, template)
	end	
end

i would put the AutoRotate property in Humanoid to false, for no interference. See if that works.

Unfortunately, that didn’t help either

(here’s how it rotates after parenting the dummy back to the viewport frame)

I’m so sorry, I found the solution myself. It was because I didn’t anchor the dummies
Thank you for your help though!

@bandanchik

	local UserId = game.Players:FindFirstChild(username).UserId
	local HumanoidDescription 

okay, instead of parenting it at workspace and back to viewport, best you use - Players:CreateHumanoidModelFromUserId(player.UserId) as still it gets the players accessories.

this is a server script btw

-- //Services
local Players = game:GetService("Players")

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player: Player) 

	-- //Character
	local character = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()

	-- //Humanoid
	local Humanoid = character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
	local HumanoidDescription = Humanoid:FindFirstChild("HumanoidDescription")

	-- //
	local newCharacter

	local success, errorMessage = pcall(function(...)
		newCharacter = Players:CreateHumanoidModelFromDescription(HumanoidDescription, Enum.HumanoidRigType.R15) -- //change the R15 to R6 if you like, this is diff from userId
	end)

	if success then
		newCharacter.Parent = workspace
	else
		warn(errorMessage)
	end	
	
end)
